Spending majority of your time working is actually not fulfilling at all. People want to enjoy their lives without it involving working 24/7. Your job is not your identity!! I have a good career but you will never know it because I don’t even put it on my social media I only post traveling and hobbies! Again nothing is wrong with working but spending MAJORITY of our time working is a dead end. I’m happy we are realizing this and going against the grain!
I know right, it took me my last job where they didn't want to pay my vacation leave to work for myself. I'm much more happier and stress free.It was hard in the beginning but I'm in a better mood and place now.
I'm so grateful my mom, brother, and I can live together and combine all our stuff. I'm 32, he's 34, mom's 65, I no longer feel shame for living with family. Bro and I would've drowned years ago without it.
You are blessed. I wish I had your experience. My mom was killed when I was 5, my brother has been in prison my entire life. I got emancipated at 16. Never ever had the experience of living as a family, in peace or unity. Please treasure your life & situations.❤ 🤷🏽♀️
I feel this so much. I’m currently in grad school for what I thought was my “dream job” but i’ve come to realize that I don’t have a dream job. I don’t dream of working.

If possible get on the property ladder by buying with friends and or family. Think about working from home or hybrid working if possible so you can enjoy your home. The people who I have seen become homeowners including myself had to think outside of the box to make things work for us. I’m not saying it’s easy but it’s possible.
Buy a house you can afford. And place a home owners warranty on everything on your home from the roof, HVAC, plumbing appliances etc. You should be fine
This is an awakening, now we need to figure out how to make a change. I felt this way when I was surrounded by my piers pretending they were excited for the work. it is incredibly isolating.
I love hearing young people say this! I was raised by Boomers and Silent Gen to believe that I was nothing. If someone was foolish enough to hire me, I had to be so grateful and show my appreciation by killing myself with work. Now, young people have boundaries and are protecting their peace. I say, bravo!
Girl I feel you, we not owning houses or a decent car so what are we working for? Most of us still live with our parents and you want us to have children!!! Food is expensive relationships are complicated 🙃 welcome to a life of insanity. I'm so happy my mother love and support me ,we are adults that still depend our parents! These people only care about themselves, everday people feel like low life losers working so hard just to pay bills ?????Where is the good old days theses orders generation benefits for us ,these same old people look down on us where there generation gave them the resources and a system to thrive. That's why I'm so pissed 😤 a generation that never took accountability for breaking a system that helps people to get ahead. Nobody it's getting ahead now.
The good old days were people working in the fields. Lol. My mom joined the military in the 70's to escape poverty. She struggled even though she was married well until the early 2010's. One of my aunts moved to NY to be a maid to escape poverty. They lived through Jim Crow. That's why older people look down on the younger generation. You have a lot more opportunities than they had.
In CA they now take just under half of your winnings for taxes. So you could win $1M, but you only get about $500,000+. $500K is still a lot of money, but my house which is a 17000 sqft home built in 1957 is worth $650K.
So I totally empathize with the exhaustion. I’m exhausted too. I cry all the time and am immensely stressed at work….HOWEVER, I have a legit question: if we all quit our jobs, stayed home and did hobbies, who would work at the electricity companies to keep our lights on? Who would work for the water companies to keep us with clean running water? We could grow our own fruits and veggies but are yall meat eaters gonna grow and kill your own meat? lol are we gonna go back to hand building our own houses and growing grain to make bread from scratch? Are we gonna make toys from wood for our children? And make our own furniture? I could go on and on and on with examples lol but my point is, I very much think that we should return to some of the ways in which our ancestors lived thousands of years ago. BUT I’m aware that that means I’ll still be working sun up to sun down, just not in a 9-5 lol I just wonder if some of these folks realize that as humans, NONE of us asked to be here but we’re here. So if we wanna eat, we’ll have to do SOMETHING in order to eat, and no I don’t agree with how we currently live, I would rather return to traditional life styles but I’m under no delusions that I’ll get to stay home and do hobbies all day 🤣 unless I somehow hit the lotto and become part of the 1%
I have been saying this for years, only for people to look at me like I'm crazy. Or just shrug and say "that'll never happen" I suggest a 'NO WORK NOVEMBER' 2024 no one goes to work for the whole month and watch what happens.
The problem is we're overproducing and we're not being compensated fairly. There are lots of people who love their jobs and there are some who dont but the money makes up for it. Go to farmers markets and pay them for their produce or meat. But if you're being paid pennues on the dollar, you can't afford fresh food so you have to eat junk food that'll f-up your physical and mental health and make working so much feel even worse. If everyone monetize their talents/gifts they can create more competition and that translates to better controlled pricing and fairer wages. It's good to make profits but not at the expense of your workers. Also, some things should just not be monetized in my opinion but I know how the U.S. loves to hate on social programs and laws to protect the people's human rights.
Adulting sucks but this is why most people play the lottery. Spending time with family, friends, and personal passions are what we live for...we are not meant to live for work.😑
Hopefully these folks will see how important it is for us to support social programs and services, Universal Basic Income and housing as a human right, etc The pressure we feel to be a cog in the capitalist machine is unnecessary and there are other ways to live!
I half agree w/the last guy but the thing is when you have your own business, there's barely a "day off" esp if it's small and in the early stages. That's still hella work which can be worth it but we're talking working PERIOD, my dad sometimes says that he doesn't blame other Black ppl for not wanting to work. I'm almost done w/my degree but I'm so tired bc it took me a decade to get here. And I gotta work at least 40 more years? I'd rather expire ngl
I know I'm over it. You spend all day at work and you spend 1+ hours travelling to work. I don't even bother with overtime because that's more hours at work just for them to now pay you what they could have been paid you
I agree. I don’t want to either, but unless you figure your own way out, you gotta participate in the economy one way or another. Even if you move to another country you still have to do something unfortunately.
I would say I got a good job child free but tbh I’ve been having that feeling too just tired. At the age of 28 DNC I’m begging the universe please don’t bring me back here.
As an X, who has worked for at least 40 years, the actual act of working is highly overrated, and I’d love to have w money flow in from some other source.
ANXIETY/PANIC ATTACKS ARE SCARY AF. UNFORTUNATELY I BEEN DEALING WITH THOSE FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS. NOT REALIZING HOW COMMON THAT IS. ESPECIALLY IN THE 🌍 TODAY. MOST OF US WANT FULL STABILITY SO WE GO HARD. BUT THE TRUTH IS BREAKS ARE NEEDED.
I feel exhausted with this type of life, I can't imagine living like this for the next 20yrs like most of our parents did. Hopefully we find a way out 😢

I agree with the original stitch! 💯 I'd rather be disabled and collect benefits. 🤷 If I didn't ask, nor choose, nor consent to be born, I shouldn't have to work! I was told that the world didn't "owe" me anything! And yet, you want people to work, be wage-slaves and contribute to society as a "collective"? 🤔 If the world "doesn't owe" me anything, I don't owe it anything either! Again, I NEVER put myself here! Who the hell would voluntarily choose to be born in this world??? I sure as hell wouldn't! Mind you, its weird how mfs want people to work and then will simultaneously PREVENT people from working via rejection! I've had people suggest volunteering to me! Mind you I'm disabled! And even if I wasn't, volunteering is an absolute hell no! I don't believe in free labor without pay! That's the equivalent to slavery! I'm so glad I'm happily single and happily childfree! The fact that there's people still reproducing is disgusting and selfish! I've been financially controlled/abused before (*as well as abused in other ways!*) If there's no money to dangle in someone's face, the better! I agree with the original stitch! I don't see anything "wrong" with not working! Everything in this world should be free for the taking! I mean, if you're going to continue to overpopulate the planet with lives that NEVER asked, nor chose, nor consented to be born, the LEAST you can do is make the world free and abolish money and jobs!
True remember when Michelle from destiny child said this n everyone laughed at her I wished everything was free like how it was setup before u know who gave Indians five dollars n said they now own their land
There are disabled getting 1,500 in benefits a month. That's hard to do even in the poorest areas as rent is astronomical everywhere in proportion to pay. Be careful what you wish for. I can't imagine wishing to be disabled.
@@smfarrie2943 I don't have to be careful about what I wish for. Also, I technically never "wished" to be disabled, as I ACTUALLY AM disabled. I have a multitude of different ones and what I was saying is that I'd rather have the disabilities I currently have and get approved to collect benefits from it than to work. I stand ten-toes down on what I said! I'm not changing my stance on the matter! Now, granted I never "wished" to be disabled even though I am, I also never asked, chose, nor consented to be disabled. Just like I never asked, nor chose, nor consented to be born! I shouldn't have to work in a world I got no say in! 🤷
@@marissa._ Not disabled enough that you can't work. And wishing to be on a limited income at the benefit of the government because you don't want to work still doesn't change how simple your logic is.
I was homeless for a few years (not deciding to leave a relationship) but I learned SOOO many valuable life lessons and I enjoyed the freedom that came with it. I’ve been working for a while and while I do enjoy taking trips with friends every now and again but I miss being free. Not feeling confined…
You should not lose your health and face possible dangers just for money. It is not worth it. No company pays anyone to live sustainably. They will go bankrupt and face possible setbacks if they started paying a living wage.
Sadly if people actually cared about their fellow man there would be systems in place where we could just exist in some type of shared economy where people volunteered for points to live and housing was taken care of. We cannot even get people to vote for universal healthcare though which is one of the reasons folks also have to work. Depending on the lifestyle one wants to have you literally can set yourself up to do exactly what you want. Just dont live outside of your set financial limits and don't have bills.
Which is why i dont understand how poor peope are still having kids. That's just selfish and cruel to me because NONE OF US asked to be here. Let the well to do people have their own kids and make them work for unlivable wages. Its a form of eugenics but fuck it. They can do their own labour and maybe then they'll change their ways when they no longer have a working class.
If you're grown and don't want to earn your own money. You'll end up being kepy by someone. Your parents, a doctor 💊, uncle Sam or a controlling lover. If you think life is hell now, you just wait.😂
I really wish they would get rid of cover letters, college degrees, GEDs/highschool diplomas, ROUNDS of interviews and references! Unpopular opinion: When you really think about it, everything you need to know, as far as the basics, has been learned in elementary school. Highschool is unnecessarily hard and college is unnecessarily harder! Honestly, why TF do you need a highschool diploma/GED to do ANY ENTRY-LEVEL jobs??? I'm talking cashier, Uber, Lyft, fast food, etc. Why do you need a highschool diploma/GED for that??? Much less, a college degree?! And then to make matters WORSE, you're not even going to check to see if I have those things or not! So why ask?! Are you gonna go through EVERY SINGLE SCHOOL TRANSCRIPT I have and look at EVERY SINGLE GRADE I've gotten since preschool??? If not, why TF are asking about something that: 1. You're not going to check on 2. Doesn't pertain/relate to the job in question Why do that? Now, I NEVER technically "dropped out" of highschool. I also NEVER got expelled. BUT...I was told by my school counselor that I needed to leave because if I didn't, it would've only gotten worse for me being in that highschool. My highschool was HORRIBLE! The bullying, the shitty teachers, its too much to even try to articulate! Just know it was bad and I think my school counselor was trying to look out for me. Anyway, after trying to get transferred to another school and NONE of the schools would accept me in, I didn't have a choice but to get my equivalency! I was 18 when I immediately went and 23 by the time I was done! It was A LOT! I regret getting that p.o.s. piece of paper because: 1. My mom wanted me to promise her that I'd finish. I kept the promise and I regret doing so! A person with deteriorating health shouldn't be asking someone to make them any promises! Its not fair to the person they're asking! They may not be able to keep any promises and they also may not want to! 2. Getting my equivalency didn't benefit me like I was LIED to and said it would! It did NOTHING for me! Which is why I'm glad I'm not a college graduate! I'm glad I don't have a degree! I don't have debt either! Why TF do you need more than ONE interview?! I've heard people talk about how they had to do 2+ interviews with people and I'm like, "why though? 🤔 That's suspicious as hell! " IDGAF what anyone says; anything beyond ONE interview is WAY TOO MUCH! That's an interrogation! That's harassment! Either give that person the job or stop DISRESPECTING their time! You're "yanking their chain" and they didn't come there for that! Why TF do you need a "cover letter"?! As a matter of fact, WTF even is a cover letter?! Let's start there! Why does someone have to SALE themselves to you like a slave or a prostitute for a raggedy job that doesn't pay well?! I'm NOT for sale! If you want to see how I am as worker, get TF up off YOUR ass and TEACH ME what I'm supposed to do! Instead of EXPECTING me to come in already knowing what to do! It doesn't work that way! The same way someone had to teach you how to do the job you have now, why TF can't you do the same and pass the torch to someone else?! Hire me, PAY ME and TEACH me! ITS THAT SIMPLE!!!!! Why TF do you need "references?" Do you have any idea how sad, miserable, mentally inept and pathetic you have to be to NOT be willing or maybe even able to come up with an original thought of your own? 🤔 Instead, you wanna gossip, sip tea and piggyback off what someone else has to say about a job seeker! And everyone doesn't have a reference(s)! Like, why do you feel the need to contact person "A" about person "C"? If person "C" is the job seeker and person "B" is the employer and person "A" is the reference, why are you contacting person "A"??? Why not hire and pay person "C" and formulate your OWN opinion about person "C" instead of piggybacking off of person "A"!

Yeah, I get it. You do so much work for breadcrumbs to live off of. You pay $$$$$ for a degree that you may not even get to use. It took me 13 years to get to what I'm making now. I should have been making this money 2 years after I got my degree, but no one wanted to pay it and then they wanted to add another cert to it to confirm why they didn't want to pay it. It's ridiculous. I swear America needs to look at other countries that have great work-life balance and then we do the same. We need to lower the cost somehow. The citizens cannot afford it anymore. Yes, you can spend 1 Billion in a lifetime. If you spend it frivolously, you can purchase some mansions, yachts, and private planes. But Jeff Besos and Elon should give back because 99% of the purchases are from them. Give back to your loyal buyers.
Every animal on earth works to stay alive, and we actually have it a lot easier sitting around inside buildings than we would in nature. In nature, you’d have to hunt down or gather anything you wanted to eat or use. You’d have to butcher the animals, tan hides, make fires, make beads from bones, take down the tents and move every 3 days when the animals move to find more grass, etc. You’d have to build and do everything yourself. Most of us have never had a hard job even one day in our lives, but our attitude makes it much harder. Go to the Museum of the Native American in NYC. Could you live like those people? Probably not.

@VE9USHAS9LIVES that part. Working does not equal slaving away. Older people used to talk about a time when they could purchase a home with a part time job. That's all we're talking about. Just ease up off our necks a lil bit

Its not about that. Dont you find anything wrong with the idea AT ALL that were being worked pretty much to our graves almost? Humans shouldnt be called LAZY for pointing out the obvious, twisted ways in which they are being used.

ANXIETY/PANIC ATTACKS ARE SCARY AF. UNFORTUNATELY I BEEN DEALING WITH THOSE FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS. NOT REALIZING HOW COMMON THAT IS. ESPECIALLY IN THE 🌍 TODAY. MOST OF US WANT FULL STABILITY SO WE GO HARD. BUT THE TRUTH IS BREAKS ARE NEEDED.
Thats everyone
I feel exhausted with this type of life, I can't imagine living like this for the next 20yrs like most of our parents did. Hopefully we find a way out 😢
Loving the hair in the photo it looks so cute xxx
Girl I feel you, we not owning houses or a decent car so what are we working for? Most of us still our parents and you want us to have children!!! Food is expensive relationships are complicated 🙃 welcome to a life of insanity. I'm so happy my mother love and support me ,we are adults that still depend our parents! These people only care about themselves, everday people feel like low life losers working so hard just to pay bills ?????
I agree with the original stitch! 💯
I'd rather be disabled and collect benefits. 🤷
If I didn't ask, nor choose, nor consent to be born, I shouldn't have to work! I was told that the world didn't "owe" me anything! And yet, you want people to work, be wage-slaves and contribute to society as a "collective"? 🤔
If the world "doesn't owe" me anything, I don't owe it anything either! Again, I NEVER put myself here! Who the hell would voluntarily choose to be born in this world??? I sure as hell wouldn't!
Mind you, its weird how mfs want people to work and then will simultaneously PREVENT people from working via rejection! I've had people suggest volunteering to me! Mind you I'm disabled! And even if I wasn't, volunteering is an absolute hell no! I don't believe in free labor without pay! That's the equivalent to slavery!
I'm so glad I'm happily single and happily childfree! The fact that there's people still reproducing is disgusting and selfish! I've been financially controlled/abused before (*as well as abused in other ways!*) If there's no money to dangle in someone's face, the better!
I agree with the original stitch! I don't see anything "wrong" with not working! Everything in this world should be free for the taking! I mean, if you're going to continue to overpopulate the planet with lives that NEVER asked, nor chose, nor consented to be born, the LEAST you can do is make the world free and abolish money and jobs!
True remember when Michelle from destiny child said this n everyone laughed at her I wished everything was free like how it was setup before u know who gave Indians five dollars n said they now own their land
There are disabled getting 1,500 in benefits a month. That's hard to do even in the poorest areas as rent is astronomical everywhere in proportion to pay. Be careful what you wish for. I can't imagine wishing to be disabled.

I don't have to be careful about what I wish for. Also, I technically never "wished" to be disabled, as I ACTUALLY AM disabled. I have a multitude of different ones and what I was saying is that I'd rather have the disabilities I currently have and get approved to collect benefits from it than to work. I stand ten-toes down on what I said! I'm not changing my stance on the matter! Now, granted I never "wished" to be disabled even though I am, I also never asked, chose, nor consented to be disabled. Just like I never asked, nor chose, nor consented to be born! I shouldn't have to work in a world I got no say in! 🤷
@@marissa._ Not disabled enough that you can't work. And wishing to be on a limited income at the benefit of the government because you don't want to work still doesn't change how simple your logic is.
@@marissa._ stand ten toes down? So you can stand and walk. Lmao.
I was homeless for a few years (not deciding to leave a relationship) but I learned SOOO many valuable life lessons and I enjoyed the freedom that came with it. I’ve been working for a while and while I do enjoy taking trips with friends every now and again but I miss being free. Not feeling confined…
You should not lose your health and face possible dangers just for money. It is not worth it. No company pays anyone to live sustainably. They will go bankrupt and face possible setbacks if they started paying a living wage.
Sadly if people actually cared about their fellow man there would be systems in place where we could just exist in some type of shared economy where people volunteered for points to live and housing was taken care of. We cannot even get people to vote for universal healthcare though which is one of the reasons folks also have to work. Depending on the lifestyle one wants to have you literally can set yourself up to do exactly what you want. Just dont live outside of your set financial limits and don't have bills.
The girl at 11:39 spoke facts!!!
Which is why i dont understand how poor peope are still having kids. That's just selfish and cruel to me because NONE OF US asked to be here. Let the well to do people have their own kids and make them work for unlivable wages. Its a form of eugenics but fuck it. They can do their own labour and maybe then they'll change their ways when they no longer have a working class.
If you're grown and don't want to earn your own money. You'll end up being kepy by someone. Your parents, a doctor 💊, uncle Sam or a controlling lover. If you think life is hell now, you just wait.😂
I’m only on the beginning, but everyone who doesn’t have their dream job feels that way. This annoyed me.
I really wish they would get rid of cover letters, college degrees, GEDs/highschool diplomas, ROUNDS of interviews and references!
Unpopular opinion:
When you really think about it, everything you need to know, as far as the basics, has been learned in elementary school. Highschool is unnecessarily hard and college is unnecessarily harder! Honestly, why TF do you need a highschool diploma/GED to do ANY ENTRY-LEVEL jobs??? I'm talking cashier, Uber, Lyft, fast food, etc. Why do you need a highschool diploma/GED for that??? Much less, a college degree?! And then to make matters WORSE, you're not even going to check to see if I have those things or not! So why ask?! Are you gonna go through EVERY SINGLE SCHOOL TRANSCRIPT I have and look at EVERY SINGLE GRADE I've gotten since preschool??? If not, why TF are asking about something that:
1. You're not going to check on
2. Doesn't pertain/relate to the job in question
Why do that?
Now, I NEVER technically "dropped out" of highschool. I also NEVER got expelled. BUT...I was told by my school counselor that I needed to leave because if I didn't, it would've only gotten worse for me being in that highschool. My highschool was HORRIBLE! The bullying, the shitty teachers, its too much to even try to articulate! Just know it was bad and I think my school counselor was trying to look out for me. Anyway, after trying to get transferred to another school and NONE of the schools would accept me in, I didn't have a choice but to get my equivalency! I was 18 when I immediately went and 23 by the time I was done! It was A LOT! I regret getting that p.o.s. piece of paper because:
1. My mom wanted me to promise her that I'd finish. I kept the promise and I regret doing so! A person with deteriorating health shouldn't be asking someone to make them any promises! Its not fair to the person they're asking! They may not be able to keep any promises and they also may not want to!
2. Getting my equivalency didn't benefit me like I was LIED to and said it would! It did NOTHING for me! Which is why I'm glad I'm not a college graduate! I'm glad I don't have a degree! I don't have debt either!
Why TF do you need more than ONE interview?! I've heard people talk about how they had to do 2+ interviews with people and I'm like, "why though? 🤔 That's suspicious as hell! "
IDGAF what anyone says; anything beyond ONE interview is WAY TOO MUCH! That's an interrogation! That's harassment! Either give that person the job or stop DISRESPECTING their time! You're "yanking their chain" and they didn't come there for that!
Why TF do you need a "cover letter"?! As a matter of fact, WTF even is a cover letter?! Let's start there! Why does someone have to SALE themselves to you like a slave or a prostitute for a raggedy job that doesn't pay well?! I'm NOT for sale! If you want to see how I am as worker, get TF up off YOUR ass and TEACH ME what I'm supposed to do! Instead of EXPECTING me to come in already knowing what to do! It doesn't work that way! The same way someone had to teach you how to do the job you have now, why TF can't you do the same and pass the torch to someone else?! Hire me, PAY ME and TEACH me! ITS THAT SIMPLE!!!!!
Why TF do you need "references?"
Do you have any idea how sad, miserable, mentally inept and pathetic you have to be to NOT be willing or maybe even able to come up with an original thought of your own? 🤔
Instead, you wanna gossip, sip tea and piggyback off what someone else has to say about a job seeker! And everyone doesn't have a reference(s)! Like, why do you feel the need to contact person "A" about person "C"? If person "C" is the job seeker and person "B" is the employer and person "A" is the reference, why are you contacting person "A"??? Why not hire and pay person "C" and formulate your OWN opinion about person "C" instead of piggybacking off of person "A"!
What is the solution
Stop complaining and go to work. Whine, whine, whine… Young people need to snap out of if.
In Eden, Adam and eve didn't have bills. If only They would not have eaten that fruit, we all would not be in this mess for real !
So we have to pay for other people sins that had nothing to do with us
Ngl i was hesitant to click cuz i thought it was gonna be a while bunch of men bashing feminism like "lol that's what you get" and "see? You need men"
Glad i was wrong
Can someone helt? What is the background song to these ladies' testimonies? Thank you.

Yeah, I get it. You do so much work for breadcrumbs to live off of. You pay $$$$$ for a degree that you may not even get to use. It took me 13 years to get to what I'm making now. I should have been making this money 2 years after I got my degree, but no one wanted to pay it and then they wanted to add another cert to it to confirm why they didn't want to pay it. It's ridiculous. I swear America needs to look at other countries that have great work-life balance and then we do the same. We need to lower the cost somehow. The citizens cannot afford it anymore.
Yes, you can spend 1 Billion in a lifetime. If you spend it frivolously, you can purchase some mansions, yachts, and private planes. But Jeff Besos and Elon should give back because 99% of the purchases are from them. Give back to your loyal buyers.
Every animal on earth works to stay alive, and we actually have it a lot easier sitting around inside buildings than we would in nature. In nature, you’d have to hunt down or gather anything you wanted to eat or use. You’d have to butcher the animals, tan hides, make fires, make beads from bones, take down the tents and move every 3 days when the animals move to find more grass, etc. You’d have to build and do everything yourself. Most of us have never had a hard job even one day in our lives, but our attitude makes it much harder. Go to the Museum of the Native American in NYC. Could you live like those people? Probably not.
This mindset is so toxic and entitled
I think it's pretty reasonable to be entitled to your own time 😆 Like, who tf else would it belong to?
What's "toxic" about it? Plus, MY TIME and LABOR isn't something other people are entitled to! If MY TIME and LABOR, literally belong to me, myself and I, I have a right to be entitled to it! What TF are you talking about?!
Imagine having sex and reproducing another wage-slave and then when that person who NEVER asked, nor chose, nor consented to be here in the first place says they don't want to exert themselves to make money, trolls like you call them "toxic", "entitled" and "lazy!" Even Adam and Eve NEVER worked a day in their lives! Humans shouldn't be working! Money shouldn't exist! Everything should be free for the taking!

Well, I guess if she wants to live under a bridge! I love working to take care of myself! The alternative is having to rely on someone else for sustanance and I ain't with THAT!
No one wants to work, but we have to .she needs to fight the spirit of laziness
It’s not about laziness. Humans are not designed to work their lives away for decades at these corporations
@VE9USHAS9LIVES that part. Working does not equal slaving away. Older people used to talk about a time when they could purchase a home with a part time job. That's all we're talking about. Just ease up off our necks a lil bit
KMT 🙄 then don't. Live under a bridge and eat leaves and drink rain water 😅
😂😂😂😂 sorry but the big KMT and solution made me laugh. I wasn’t ready for this comment lol.
This conversation is becoming scary.Grown people that dont even want to take care of themselves.They just want to stay at home most of the day,do arts and crafts and scroll up and down tik tok like mindless idiots.Thank god a new working class is brewing in America. #THEREPLACEMENTSAREHERE
Its not about that. Dont you find anything wrong with the idea AT ALL that were being worked pretty much to our graves almost? Humans shouldnt be called LAZY for pointing out the obvious, twisted ways in which they are being used.
